This report describes the process of developing a new type of multiple-choice question (MCQ), called sequential multiple-choice questions (SMCQs), in order to reduce the probability of answering correctly by chance and contrast the students' tendency to copy. In SMCQs the five possible answers to a question are connected to one another on an approximation scale towards the most probable answer.

Abstract

This report describes the process of developing a new type of multiple-choice question (MCQ), called sequential multiple-choice questions (SMCQs), in order to reduce the probability of answering correctly by chance and contrast the students' tendency to copy. In SMCQs the five possible answers to a question are connected to one another on an approximation scale towards the most probable answer.
